This was my absolute favorite so far! I plan to share this with my daughter and her boyfriend; it's just so important to have our expectations better aligned with reality! This even helped me process some things from my early marriage, so thank you. ❤️
Such a fantastic podcast!
This was a really interesting conversation - one I'd like to re-listen to think more deeply about. I noticed you have 14 minutes of silence at the end of this recording - I assume you didn't really want it like that.
